Domaine Billaud-Simon, Vaudésir, Grand Cru, Burgundy, 2009

When made by top producers in good years, Chablis has amazing ageing potential and can easily be kept for a decade. This offering may be six years old already but it still has a long way to go. The nose opens up to citrus fruit with menthol notes and a steely minerality. Plenty of depth, tension and precision with purity of fruit and a lingering finish. This will make a great foil for fish in sauce or poultry.
